Brisbane Roar vs Phoenix - Sunday, Nov 29

This team is pretty much picking itself at the moment, as is the bench:

Costa
Party Disco Troy
Caceres
Gould

Easily ? Vukovic has to be up there. I'd say as the best.

Yea i totally disagree with bolton being the best. If you go on current form i would pick Vukovic, but i think Moss is up there when on song and Galekovic was pretty good last year. So no Bolton is not the best in the league

Are you high?

CCM have lowest Against total, and Vukovic has the best defensive stats of all keepers this season.

Bolton had some nice efforts with saving a penalty or two, but Vukovic is easily in the form of a lifetime at the moment.

From what I've seen this season, here's how I'd rank the 'keepers who have played most regularly for each team...

I rate moss, thou i think he has had better seasons..

Pretty good, but Paston has improved heaps in the last 2 months, so he is ahead of Moss.

On current form

1. Vukovic
2. Galekovic
3. Bolton
4. Paston
5. Velaphi
6. Langerak
7. Moss





rest

Paston has definately stepped up this season. Think he was a little shaky the first couple of games (the whole team was though) but since then has been getting better and better every game 

Thread takeover much?

I'm happy Henrique's not playing, even though I really enjoy watching him. He and Miller always seem to work some nice, clever combinations together, whereas Miller and van Dijk/Reinaldo have never properly clicked. Malcolm being back in the team would be good for us too: without doubt one of the worst defenders in the league despite his reputation.

Henrique is their best player imo and we usually struggle a little against fast players. Good news for us.

I'm just worried about our condition - read that Manny lost 3.2 kilos and most of the other guys probably lost a similar amount of weight which isn't a good thing. It's going to be hot again up in Brisbane - maybe not 40 degrees, but way more humid and probably still over 30.

Hmmm ill rephrase that. Bolton is the best keeper in the air. Vukovic is probably a better shot stopper.

Vukovic is the best shot stopper imo, hes just not very big

9 pm Sunday is pants.  Suppose I'll have a  and then come down to watch it anyway.

at that time, it certainly sets the mood for monday morning tigers2009-11-28 09:26:13

the ref is Peter Green. we won with him in charge last week 

Pretty good list though Moss would definatly be behind Paston and maybe equal with Reddy. Galekovic hasn't had the best season so perhaps behind Paston aswell. In-form Galekovic though is easily the best keeper in the League. Velaphi woud be ahead of Henderson and Higgins too.wellyphoenixfan2009-11-28 14:47:12

Paston is the best organiser, Galekovic from last season would be on par with him though...

Crowther is the maddest!

And he's the one playing tomorrow. Back to the match in hand lads.

Crowther definately gets the award for 'most wired' keeper

wired or weird ? 

i think the melbourne coach doest rate moss as the number 1 at melbourne let alone in the league

 

Michael Utting for me

Or the crack fox.

Big game tonight for the Phoenix.

Never beaten the Roar, what better time for us to do it.

Them and Adelaide I want to knock off at least once this season..as well as NQF.

Must not concede early...settle into the game, and the opportunities will come. Later kick-off up in Brisbane as opposed to Newcastle will allow the players to play.

Brisbane within touching distance of us on the points table, so very important for us not to have a letdown. We are away from the SFS, so maybe it won't?!

Come On Phoenix!!!!!!!!!!!!! a messy 2-1 win i think.

Anyone going down to the Kings for the game?

Did last week, too whipped tonight though

I'm picking a 2-0 win for the nix

yip im wanting 2. Thinking Lia is Due and Ifill with two assists.

6-5 Nix

predicting a 2 - 0 win for us tonite.

Please never use the word 'much' in the way ever again.
